the maiden voyage...

We are back from 2 glorious days of camping.

What's the sudden interest in camping, you ask?

We used  to camp...

long, long ago

but

then there were babies 

and 

moving into houses without plumbing.

Restoration was camping

and

 then

this happened:

Our 3 oldest married children all have campers 

and 

love to go  camping together.

We used to drive up for the day, eat lunch, and then drive home.

 We took the plunge and bought a  trailer.

Mr and Mrs G even joined us in the adventure

with their new-to-them camper.

 I did what every proper grandmother would do;

I  took advantage of the situation

baby mo

She was such a happy camper.

The big boys played

and 

the little boys played.

The girls had fun, too.

I took pictures,

and read my Mary Jane magazines, 

and slept in until 9:30

which is practically unheard of for me.

Even with all of the children 

it  was blissfully quiet.

I can't wait to go again.

Here's a teaser of the inside of the trailer...
